I love the idea of this. This is exactly the kind of thing I would rush out to buy, store in garage, and take out of garage only to sell years later when selling the car for which I bought it.

Haha me too like i did with the Porsche cool bag which had enough room for 3 cans and took up 1/4 of the boot.

Haha, I bought that too but I’ve been making myself use it. My boogie @ss figured out that it holds three bottles of champagne (upright) with two bottles of water wedged between

Ahh now it makes sense.

3 bottles of champagne = can’t drive the car for 3 days

hence need for tent option…. :)

I think this might be four new roof tents on Taycan’s. Seen at Porsche roundabout today at Zuffenhausen.
:p Not sure why, but this looks like a bunch of Stromae fans in line for a concert

I found an ev hotel and it says it has a

Tesla Dest.Charger 20.00kW

Will that charge a taycan? Thanks
Yes, but you need to buy a plug adapter for the Tesla plug. Check out Tesla Tap. I got one and it works great, but only for “destination charging”, like at a hotel. Won’t work with Superchargers. S.

I find that the two small bottles of water evens it out.

And I was worried about a possible 10% decrease in range with my custom bike rack - massive brick on the roof will def be worse than that :)!

On the US and UK Tequipment sites, roof tents are apparently available on request for the Taycan! Again not saying for one minute I'm interested but I wonder if an even newer model is coming given @tigerbalm's pics or just road testing still this 'new' option.

https://content.us.porsche.com/prod/pag/tequipment/TeqFinder.nsf/TeqFinder?ReadForm&ba=Taycan&ma=PCNA (LL)&sp=12&bt=J1&mo=Taycan 4S Cross Turismo&co=100&ac=product&pr=3DD000ECDA9DD34BC12588AF002BD89D

BUT only available by November 2022 in the US.

Guess I'd just be hyper-paranoid of all that weight on the Pano roof but presumably engineered to fit!

These following pics from the UK site - no Taycan pic available - would be rather bizarre to be driving with it on this car imho!

You can order it now. $6395 from Suncoast. Dealbreaker though: maximum speed with roof tent: 130 km/hr (~80 mph).

I am sure that is so it doesn’t blow off but may be wise to go slow because of the range hit with the drag increase.

Indeed - well I'd personally never use something like this but interesting its out there! That and the range hit has to be substantial if of concern - simple bike carriers tucked at rear of the car already thought to detract ca 10%, in some instances apparently as much as 20% although seems steep.
